When Pearl Harbor was attacked, Lindy Rossino was barely 14 and desperately wanted to join the fight. Forced to wait, he finally enlisted just shy of his 17th birthday and was assigned to a different role than he had envisioned: The Coast Guard. #HFC96

Ed Gniadek spent a year in the jungle of Vietnam with the Big Red One. When units passed by asking for volunteers on specific missions, he usually raised his hand. We are honored to fly "Turtle" on #HFC96!
